Gen-X Dating OnlineOnline dating is a relatively new phenomenon in the dating scene, but the burgeoning internet has made it an instant success. More and more singles are internet savvy and willing to give online dating a go. This is because not only is it a discreet and simple way to land dates, but also that the possibilities are seemingly limitless. Technology is slowly infiltrating into our lives, and there is no longer any discomfort in revealing that a relationship or marriage had its beginnings in online dating. But recent research has revealed that one of the factors unique to online dating is that the pace of intimacy is much higher than in traditional dating. Most serious online daters tend to be honest because they want a long-term relationship and they do not want to exaggerate their qualities for fear of being called out. So it can be expected that fast, honest communication forms the basis of sound relationships. But this is not always so. Online daters have reported that promising potential dates turn out to be not so attractive in person. Communicating online helps them exchange ideas through language, but exclude the unspoken language that passes between people when they talk in front of each other. So meeting in person is a big definer of how a relationship begun online is going to proceed. Matching criteria for what one is looking for in a partner, or similarity of interests does not imply in-person chemistry. Another significant effect of online dating is that the ease with which dates can be found lowers their importance. There is a tendency to become choosy and give up on a relationship faster than before. Some singles also find the decision of finally taking their profiles off the site a little difficult. Even after they have found a partner, there is always the fear that they would miss someone better, or cease to encounter new people. Online dating has its pros and cons just as any other sort of dating. It is fast and easy, but one needs to know exactly what one wants and beware of pitfalls in order to get the best results.
